PL92-Modern Deer Farming/Modern Deer Farming

The use of different willow cultivars to increase the efficiency of farm-reared cervids and to sustainably increase on-farm greening as innovative elements of modern production

Description

technology of effective summer feeding of farm deer

Sector

A1.4Animal production

Needs/ Problem statement

The proposed additional periodically provided feed sources for farm deer, allow not only bring the feeding method closer to the natural but also more effectively balance the production of roughage. The introduction of the above solutions into farm practice should consequently reduce production costs and increase greening. Actions also intended as one of the solutions in the management of damage caused by wildlife.

Objective

Improving the technology of effective summer feeding of farm deer through the rational use of willow in the supplementation of deer feeding. The objectives are to introduce the various willow cultivars as an innovative element in the technology of feeding farmed deer and to increase the greening of marginal lands. Permanent willow plantations on farms, apart from the nutritional function, will also constitute the basis for the product of willow seedlings.

Intended user

The implementation of the project will enable farmers to have direct access to technology through the publication of the results on a website and in printed form. Improving the efficiency of farm venison production should contribute to the stabilization of its marketing.
